“…One such method is the use of virtual field trips (VFTs) or virtual laboratories, which have previously been implemented with good results in engineering courses 15–18. In 1,6 engineering students participated in a VFT and a real field trip (RFT) of the same plant successively and answered a survey to see to what extent VFTs could replace RFTs. The results showed that students identified the VFT as a useful tool to provide pre-knowledge for the RFT but thought that the virtual could not replace the in-person version.…”

“…4 In Ref., 5 the lack of real experiments was identified as a source of worries for chemical engineering students in a distance learning program. In Ref., 6 in an attempt to improve distance learning in construction engineering education, current students and graduates from a cyber university were asked to evaluate their program based on proven evaluation indices regarding the curriculum, study contents, and student support. The results showed that all surveyed students found that their program's curriculum and the quality of the contents were satisfactory, but providing practice and experiments was identified as the most significant way to increase students' satisfaction.…”

Technical visits of installations related to course content can support learning, engagement and motivation of engineering students. However, the COVID-19 lockdown has prevented many in-person activities on campuses. In this work, we propose a framework for developing virtual tours, which we applied to replace in-person visits of heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) rooms of buildings located on the campus in an HVAC undergraduate course. The virtual tours rely on many pictures taken in the mechanical rooms, as well as on technical drawings and information integrated in the visits. Students were provided in advance with a series of questions which they had to answer by navigating through the virtual tours. A survey allowed to assess what students appreciated and the difficulties that they encountered during the virtual visits. We found that the virtual visits had several advantages compared to in-person visits, such as allowing students to take the tour at their own pace and extending the learning experience to include other features (e.g. reading technical drawings). Different examples and suggestions of improvement are presented in the paper. The tours had a positive impact on students’ learning and engagement, with overall positive feedbacks from the students. The main hurdle encountered by students was the difficulty to locate themselves in the rooms, which we addressed by adding room layouts in the visits.

“…In cyber university planning, special attention is needed to market needs to make decisions about support for academic programs and which programs will lose resources (Lee & Im, 2006), including an analysis of the success of cyber universities related to the academic satisfaction index in the form of success. individuality in students (Bae & Woo, 2019) and the alignment of the university with the workplace, and the need for students to lead their own studies in achieving academic success (Lee & Jeon, 2020). To fulfill these goals, cyber universities should consider designing mobile interfaces for the convenience of students in academic activities (Joo et al, 2014), having an academic library that can globally meet the needs of academic education and continuous learning (Kunneke, 2004), and even having learning flow for students for self-efficacy (selfefficacy) at university (Kim, 2020).…”

This article will explore the concept and application of the Cyber Islamic University (CIU), which is a priority program for institutional transformation in distance learning starting in 2021 as part of the transformation of institutes into universities and changes in financial governance from work unit-based financial management to service agency financial management (BLU) at IAIN Syekh Nurjati Cirebon. It is crucial to study the application of CIU as a new model of Higher Education of Islamic Religious (PTKI)which organizes distance education for students, academic development through the use of metaverse technology, and the development of digital entrepreneurship that presents a creative economy for the sustainability of educational services. This study uses a qualitative method by choosing a grounded theory approach to build the main concept of CIU and its application in universities. Data were obtained from unstructured interviews from various statements of informants who were actively involved in CIU's transformation and published on the media or website, then the data were analyzed by coding, concept formation, categorization, and theory formation stages. This research found that the institutional transformation of IAIN Syekh Nurjati Cirebon into Cyber Islamic University is a new model of higher education that organizes distance education for students to increase access to education that is inclusive for everyone. CIU for academic development through the use of metaverse technology to improve the quality of educational services that unite virtual worlds and reality that can be implemented for good values by presenting accessibility, diversity, equality, and humanity. Institutional transformation of the Public Service Agency's financial management can develop digital academic entrepreneurship with a creative economy platform that can increase income, create jobs, and simultaneously promote social inclusion, cultural diversity, and human development to strengthen educational services.
